***** The Pirate Gathering: May 23 - 26, 2008. "We are an organization within the boundaries of the Society for Creative Anachronisms (or SCA for short) which deals in all aspects of nautical life between the historical periods of 600 through 1650 AD.

The 9th Gathering is ever closer to our doors. We are looking to have the gathering at Horning's Hideout on the same weekend as usual (Memorial Day Weekend, May 23-26th 2008). For those of you not familiar with this site, it is in the Forest Grove/Hillsboro area." The Gathering: http://thepirategathering.org/
